  To ensure the stable performance and long-term effective operation of industrial fans, strict control is required from three major aspects: design and manufacturing, installation and commissioning, and operation and maintenance management.

4

  1、 Performance guarantee during the design and manufacturing phase

  1. Selection criteria for core components

  Example of a solution with superior component performance requirements

  Motor IP55 protection level, F-class insulation, efficiency>90% German SEW motor, supports variable frequency speed regulation

  Fan blade aviation aluminum material (thickness ≥ 3mm), dynamic balance accuracy G6.3 level airfoil profile design, wind resistance reduced by 20%

  Control system overload/overheating/phase loss protection, RS485 communication interface Schneider PLC+touch screen intelligent control

  2. Factory testing items

  Aerodynamic performance testing: Verify the air volume (≥ 20000m ³/h) and coverage radius in the wind tunnel laboratory;

  Durability test: Continuous full load operation for 72 hours, bearing temperature rise ≤ 40 ℃;

  Safety test: Emergency stop button response time<2 insulation="" resistance="">100M Ω.

  2、 Performance guarantee during installation and debugging phase

  1. Installation accuracy control

  Levelness: The laser calibrator ensures that the horizontal deviation of the fan blades is ≤ 0.5 ° (reducing the air volume by 8% for every 1 ° deviation);

  Height: The low point of the fan blade is at least 3 meters above the ground (the effect is best when the floor height is 4-6 meters);

  Spacing: The distance between adjacent fans is 1.5 times the diameter (to avoid airflow interference).

  2. On site debugging process

  No load test run: detect vibration values (≤ 2.8mm/s) and noise (< 55dB (A));

  Wind speed measurement: Use an anemometer to measure wind speed at 9 points 1.5m above the ground, with a uniformity deviation of less than 15%;

  System integration testing: synchronized control testing with the air conditioning/exhaust system.

  3、 Performance guarantee during the operation and maintenance phase

  1. Daily maintenance checklist

  Periodic maintenance content tools/standards

  Weekly inspection of bolt tightening, cleaning of fan blade surface, torque wrench (50N · m)

  Half yearly bearing lubrication (high-temperature lithium grease) injection gun (oil volume accounts for 30% of the chamber)

  Annual motor insulation test (≥ 1M Ω) with a megohmmeter in 2500V range

  2. Performance degradation warning indicators

  If the air volume drops by more than 10%: check for fan blade deformation or dust accumulation;

  Energy consumption increase>15%: Check for bearing wear or unstable voltage;

  Vibration value>4mm/s: Dynamic balance correction is required.

  4、 Technological upgrade and transformation

  Energy efficiency improvement plan

  Replacing traditional motors with permanent magnet synchronous motors (increasing efficiency by 5-8%);

  Install a wind speed sensor to achieve automatic speed regulation (saving 12-18% energy).

  Intelligent monitoring system

  python

  #Simulated fault warning algorithm (based on temperature/vibration data)

  if motor_temp > 80 or vibration > 4.0:

  Send_alert ("Immediate shutdown for maintenance")

  elif runtime > 4000_hours:

  schedule_maintenance()

  5、 Performance validation standards

  International Certification

  CE certification (EMC/LVD directive)

  AMCA (Air Movement and Control Association) airflow certification

  Comparison of actual measurements

  The national standard for the project requires superior product testing

  Covering an area of 800 square meters per unit and 1200 square meters per unit

  Noise ≤ 65dB (A) 48dB (A)

  Energy efficiency ratio 3.0m ³/min/W 4.2m ³/min/W

  6、 Common problem response

  Problem: Unstable fan speed

  Reason: Voltage fluctuation or frequency converter malfunction

  Solution: Install a voltage regulator and reset the parameters of the frequency converter

  Problem: No wind sensation in a local area

  Reason: Insufficient installation height or obstruction by obstacles

  Solution: Raise the hanger or adjust the fan angle

  summary

  The performance guarantee of industrial large fans requires:

  Source control (high standard material selection+strict testing)

  Accurate implementation (millimeter level installation+data-driven debugging)

  Scientific operation and maintenance (preventive maintenance+intelligent monitoring)

  It is recommended to choose manufacturers that provide a 5-year ultra long warranty and have CNAS certified laboratories (such as Hunter and McQuay), and keep the complete performance acceptance report as an attachment to the contract.
